PAH charge states peak with cations in the atomic PDR and neutrals in HII and molecular regions, with average sizes of 60-74 carbon atoms, indicating top-down formation near the ionization front and bottom-up in the molecular cloud.
JWST MIRI-MRS data from the Orion Bar PDR show that the 6.2/11.2 micron AIB ratio is the most reliable proxy for PAH ionization fraction while 6.2/8.6 and 7.7/8.6 ratios trace PAH size, with 8.6 and 11.0 microns carried by large compact cations.
